Bon Jovi




Last night Annmarie and I went to the sold out Bon Jovi concert at the Pepsi Center. This is our 2nd Bon Jovi concert and knew it was going to be an awesome night. I have been excited for months and the day finally came. The opening act was Chris Daughtry. It took some time getting into the arena because security was padding everyone down, I am sure we can guess what they were looking for. When we finally make it to our seats, Chris Daughtry was already on stage and it was dark. Turns out they set up a spotlight right in our seats so we are directed to customer service to get new tickets. The whole way down we are thinking we will be stuck in the back, well we were completely suprised when we ended up 10 rows up from the side of the stage. It could not get much better then that. So here are pictures of our seats before and after.




By the time we were settled in our permanent seats for the concert Chris Daughtry was halfway through his performance and we were okay with that because we went to see Bon Jovi. He did put on a good show even though I only knew 3 of his songs.


Finally time for Bon Jovi the man or band of the hour. They rocked the house for over 2 hours and my ears have stopped ringing and I just starting to hear again. Right by our section was an area that he came over to a couple times and where I got my best pictures of him and Richie Sambora.




They also had 4 screens set up behind the stage so those in the way back could see at least more of his features that just a figure on the stage. The screens rotated around, came together and made a bigger screen and also streched out.

We didn't get home til 11:30 and it was sure rough getting up for work this morning but the concert was definitely worth it. I can't wait til he comes next year.
